While good people of the Nobel prize committee have done their very best to flood the papers with good news this week, the bad news just won’t go away. Europe is still coming to terms with the deaths of hundreds of migrants who drowned on their way to the Italian island of Lampedusa. Stories like this one keep popping up. What can one say?

One thought on “Friday News: Crap Towns and One Ugly Lady”

The (possible) worst is that it seems like there’s something dodgy going on with the Lampedusa tragedy. Coastguard was late, two boats “suddenly” disappeared and all the money Italy gets from the EU from helping people out ..never gets to the island. Urgh.
